From La dolce vita to La grande bellezza
This article comparatively examines Federico Fellini's La dolce vita (1960) and Paolo Sorrentino's La grande bellezza (2011), focusing on their contrasting trajectories in relation to the sociosymbolic processes of secularization. While La dolce vita addresses the transmigration of religious forces and symbols from the transcendental to the mundane, La grande bellezza explores how the state of profanation depicted in La dolce vita leads to a recu…
“A Calvinian character”
Starting from Umberto Eco’s suggestion that sees Bruno Munari as a “personaggio calviniano,” this essay discusses Calvino’s Six Memos as a way to map Munari’s work and the theoretical intentions expressed in his books. This is not an arbitrary choice, for it is based on the belief that in his extraordinarily diverse and multidisciplinary work and experimentation with–among other media, genres, practices and artforms–painting, sculpture, illustrat…
Post-umano, troppo post-umano
Alla luce della nutrita critica esistente, questo saggio vuole riconsiderare e aggiornare la lettura del romanzo Sirene di Laura Pugno (2006) sia attraverso una analisi tipologica, sia attraverso una sua rilettura in chiave teorica, con preciso riferimento alle prospettive esposte da Rosi Braidotti in The Posthuman (2013). Sirene è prova esemplare di come la fantascienza si presenti come il genere più efficace per raccontare questioni teorico-cri…
Visible Books, Unreadable Books
This essay examines Bruno Munari’s innovative picture books within the broader context of his ‘major’ artistic work. Specifically, it illustrates and discusses how Munari’s production that is linked to Futurism, Abstractionism, or Concrete art, has been remediated in his books and activities for children. Munari’s work is on this score an unparalleled example of the ways the visual language of experimental art could be translated into effective a…

Introduction to the Contagion special section on psychoanalysis and René Girard's Mimetic Theory
The (Political) Forms of Technology
This essay examines three exemplar cases of Italian industrial cinema, a genre that experienced a particular and extended apogee during the decades of Italy’s economic boom: Michelangelo Antonioni’s Sette canne, un vestito (1948), Ermanno Olmi’s Costruzioni meccaniche Riva (1956), and Vittorio De Seta and Franco Dodi’s Gela 1959: pozzi a mare (1960). Aims of this analysis are to tease out some ideological and aesthetic tensions that could appear …

Vertical Readings in Dante's Comedy
Vertical Readings in Dante's Comedy is a reappraisal of the poem by an international team of thirty-four scholars. Each vertical reading analyses three same-numbered cantos from the three canticles: Inferno i, Purgatorio i and Paradiso i; Inferno ii, Purgatorio ii and Paradiso ii; etc. Although scholars have suggested before that there are correspondences between same-numbered cantos that beg to be explored, this is the first time that the approa…

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.’minaccia Nucleare, Apocalisse E Tecnocritica Nella Cultura Italiana Del Secondo Novecento
This article discusses the theme of nuclear threat in Italian narratives and culture during the 'Cold War' (1945–89). Texts are discussed by a range of authors, including Leonardo Sinisgalli, Edoardo De Filippo, Elsa Morante, Leonardo Sciascia, Paolo Volponi, Alberto Moravia, and Marco Belpoliti. For much of the century the atomic bomb has been viewed, more than as just a historical and technical development, as a projective fetish-object in whic…
Di crisi in meglio. Realismo, impegno postmoderno e cinema politico nell’Italia degli anni zero
Questo saggio sostiene che c’è stato un abuso della nozione di ‘crisi’ nel contesto critico italiano, il quale ha spesso trascurato aspetti cruciali inerenti la produzione cinematografica e proponendo analisi alquanto schematiche, spesso fortemente ideologizzate, rispetto al rapporto tra estetica e politica. Il saggio critica inoltre il legame causale, proposto da alcuni critici italiani, tra la comparsa di un’estetica postmoderna nel cinema ital…
